4. Fittings
4.1 General
Material such as plastic, plastic coated
aluminium and non-rusting steel have been used
for all mechanical components of the sunshade.
This enables the sunshade to have a very high
degree of weather resistance, functionality and
service life.
4.2 Nameplate
The nameplate is attached to the stand tube in the
vicinity of the lower slider tube stop.
The following information is printed on the nameplate:
Sunshade model
Manufacturer
Manufacturer's address
with internet adress
Sticker with Serial No.
4.3 Canopy material
The canopy material is manufactured in Polyester
fabric or Polypropylene depending on the version.
Both fabric types are treated to be water-repellent.
Coloured canopies are tested for light and colour
fastness (DIN 54 004).
The canopy material can be removed from the
sunshade easily for cleaning. Please observe
the information in the chapter entitled "Care".
Note
The sunshade canopy material is treated to be water-repellent.
This treatment is however not intended to prevent water
penetration in heavy rainfall.
The Easy Sun PARASOL is not an umbrella.

4.4 Sunshade frame
The sunshade frame is used to tension the canopy
material. It consists of the frame arms and two frame
seats.
The canopy material is fixed to the sunshade frame
with velcro bands and screws. Opening the frame is
done by a cable which is operated by the winch
handle.
4.5 Operating elements: the winch handle
The winch handle, manufactured in stainless steel, is
used to open and close the sunshade. Handling is
improved by the winch handle having a rotating
handle on bearings.
The winch handle length is designed so that the
sunshade can be opened or closed without needing
too much strength..
4.6 Operating elements: the block
The sunshade sliding tube is held in the required
position by the block.
After loosening the locking screw the sunshade
inclination can be altered and adapted to the angle of
the sun.

4.7 Sliding tube stop
The sliding tube stops limit the sunshade inclination.
They prevent the sunshade being adjusted to too great
an inclination.
4.8 Floor sleeve
The floor sleeve is fitted to the bottom of the sunshade
stand tube.
It is used to centre the stand tube in the floor stand
and ensures that the sunshade is stably mounted.
4.9 Protective cover
The protective cover, made of weather-resistant PE
fabric, protects the sunshade from damage to the
frame arms and the canopy material in any weather.
Despite this the sunshade should not be left out in the
open in extreme weather conditions such as storms or
heavy frost, but should be kept in a dry and protected
location.
